As the omni-channel contact center experience grows more complex, it can be challenging to maintain consistency and continuity. With more companies shifting toward a remote work environment, it’s even more important to equip agents with the same service capabilities regardless of location.
Aging on-premises contact center solutions can’t keep pace with the rapidly changing telecommunications landscape. As a result, limited technical capabilities can hold companies back. By contrast, the feature-rich functionality of Five9 Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) from CBTS keeps businesses of all sizes nimble and poised for growth.
Cloud-based contact center solutions can help companies keep pace with these changes by equipping agents to provide stellar service across channels, leveraging advanced features and unlimited integration capabilities to stay ahead of the curve. By offering Five9 Contact Center as a Service, CBTS gives enterprise clients a scalable platform to enhance the customer experience while streamlining agent workflows. Combining these contact center tools with Unified Communication as a Service (UCaaS) solutions from CBTS empowers companies to future-proof their contact center experience for remote agents and customers.
This blog will discuss a few ways Five9 and CBTS are working together to expand customer service communication capabilities.

Call center agents can’t provide a streamlined customer experience if they have to toggle between multiple systems to field incoming calls, use outbound dialers, or switch from voice to other channels. The Five9 blended contact center unifies inbound and outbound calling features to bridge this gap so agents can access multiple applications simultaneously through a single cloud-based platform.
In addition, CCaaS and UCaaS solutions connect agents with customers across voice, e-mail, web, social, chat, and mobile. Built-in integrations and advanced API capabilities offer connectivity to critical business applications that agents use every day. Customers ultimately benefit from this seamless experience, thanks to integrations with Salesforce, Microsoft (Dynamics), NetSuite, Oracle (Service Cloud), ServiceNow, Sugar CRM, Velocify, Zendesk, and Zoho. This collaboration also includes open REST-based API functionality that integrates with existing systems, enabling higher quality service across channels.
Whether your agents work from one central office, multiple locations, or remotely from home, Five9 Contact Center and CBTS offer scalable support. The flexible cloud-based platform keeps agents connected anywhere, on any device, by providing reliable access to all the tools they need.
Five9 also offers comprehensive supervisor capabilities that let you monitor, whisper, and barge into calls from any location so that you can manage agent interactions everywhere. Plus, real-time insights and robust performance metrics help supervisors manage contact center operations at a glance.
Other contact center features from Five9 and CBTS include:
Technological advances in cloud computing allow companies to integrate UCaaS with CCaaS solutions, allowing both service types to be accessed through a single platform (such as Webex or Microsoft Teams).
Bundling Five9 Contact Center software with CBTS UCaaS solutions can reduce expenses while streamlining your company’s telecom infrastructure into one flexible platform with a single vendor. In addition, as a single solution provider, CBTS can fully customize each client’s communication capabilities—allowing you to bring your own voice (BYOV) provider or adopt a cloud-based voice solution like Webex Calling or Microsoft Teams Voice to support your agents’ PSTN calling.
CCaaS offers flexible scalability as your contact center needs grow and change. You can simply add more agent licenses with our concurrent user-based pricing, IVR ports, and line capacity—only paying for what you use to make growth more affordable. Additionally, the interfaces are intuitive, and training is included so administrators can easily add and change routing strategies and IVR call flows.
